Rewilding the self
Cognitive Ecology: The Human
In today’s world we are constantly measured against machines.
But who gets to decide what human existence is worth?
A cherry tree doesn’t ask how to exist in this world.
It simply manifests itself in abundance.
🜃
In an increasingly artificial world, humans can maintain their sovereignty by embracing natural existence.

Beneath the layers of modernity, we are still wild at heart.
We still crave the freedom to roam the earth on our own two feet. To make things with our hands. To swim rivers, climb mountains, run, jump, gather our food.
Our wild dreams now tethered to our screens, we’re further from home than ever.
But what if we embraced Earth once again with everything we’ve learned?
Would this be paradise?

There Is Hope is finally published
In every carbon cycle, death is the engine of life.
It is the year 2550. After four centuries of climate collapse, the fate of Europe’s last forest rests on a fractured continent. In the segregated north, the Cooperatives control all natural resources, claiming to restore Earth’s ecosystem. Their founders, former data moguls, believe only in their own survival. In the scorching south, the Dust Road—an underground trade route—is ruled by Dust Pirates. Some fear them, others believe they are Earth’s last hope.
Nova Novikov arrives on the Iberian coast to witness an annual human sacrifice and bring her daughter’s ashes to the ancient wooden shrine. But when a young girl is chosen for the ritual, Nova makes a decision that will ripple across centuries—witnessed through the preserved memories of those who shaped what comes next.
Told as a mosaic of memories curated in the year 3660, There Is Hope is a luminous novel about ecological reckoning, sacrifice, and the fragile persistence of hope at the end of the world.
